This is an important story by @genoways.bsky.social -- Haitian workers vote 99% "YES" to strike at a meatpacking plant at the same time the end of TPS and their possible deportation hangs over their heads. Intersection of union power and the anti-immigrant crusade is laid bare right here.
A JBS plant’s largely immigrant workforce is refusing to back down after they accuse their employer of poor working conditions.

The Trump economy is so great MAGA must consume beef from Argentina. He signed an executive order quadrupling beef imports from there.
MAGA cattle ranchers can’t be happy about this and MAGA beef eaters must be worried about “weird foreign diseases”.

This seem pretty sus. They were drafting Epstein's death announcement before he died? And we learn this after Epstein's former cellmate says he thinks Epstein was left unprotected, and that someone wanted him dead. Sort of looks like he didn't kill himself, so who was behind this and who knew?
Newly released Epstein files include a draft statement attributed to federal prosecutors that is dated the day before Jeffrey Epstein was found dead. The draft appears among at least 23 documents in the disclosure labeled as statements from the Southern District of New York’s U.S. Attorney’s Office.
Epstein Files Reveal Prosecutors’ Announcement Dated Before His Death
The file dump includes multiple draft statements from federal prosecutors about the sex trafficker’s death, one of them dated the day before Epstein died.
